Questions & Answers

It sounds like you have an eating disorder honey. And it's okay. I do too. I'm a diagnosed bulimic with anorexic tendencies. So I KNOW how crappy it is to have to eat even if you don't want to. But think of it this way: You've got a precious life in you, which could be a new start! It's a reason to recover from your eating disorder. It's tough, and I too am struggling but we can both do it. We just have to put our babies first in our mind, not calories, or numbers on the scale. There's time to lose weight AFTER the baby comes out. But for now, just enjoy being pregnant and enjoy knowing that you're eating to keep your baby healthy, and that's all that matters right now! Private message me if you need support, we'll get thru this together!

Diet shakes are not a good idea while pregnant. There are way too many artificial sugars and chemicals! You should not be purposely losing weight at all! Smoothies to get the calories you need are usually ok, but you need more nutrients and protein than just those can provide! Please consult with your doctor about this. I've been really sick this pregnancy and it's been hard for me to eat. But sometimes you just have to force yourself to stay healthy.
On a side note, starving yourself for a WEEK is far from healthy, and can be indicative of an eating disorder. Please get the advice of your doctor, and inform them of all the details of the situation!

FACT! I do not have an eating disorder, what I said about the not eating thing was a few months before conception. I couldn't give a fuck about my body image.
Im NOT endangering my child as I do eat just very small meals, I was just asking a simple question if I could have those drinks instead of eating if I don't feel like eating due to losing my appetite.
How dare you say im neglecting giving my son what he needs. At least inbox me first before writing such answers to get the FULL story before assuming shit!

I just wanted to apologize for coming off the way I did. The weight issue comes up so much from all of us (myself included) and even though you say that's not your issue, it still does come up here all of the time. I feel bad that so many of us struggle with it and it becomes an obsession and I wonder, why do we go through it? So many woman either can't conceive or take so long to conceive, then we get pregnant and beat ourselves up to a pulp when we gain weight or gain a little too much, etc. I gained over 70lbs with my first which devastated me. I just hate that, but since you say that's not your issue, again, I apologize if I'm wrong. But if you do don't be ashamed either. We all have our issues, myself, I'm full of depression/anxiety. If that, like any other issue, I could control, I would. I just wish we could all be more comfortable with ourselves and realize, hey, I'm not perfect nor am I going to be, but I'll try to be the best I can with my baby. Sorry again :) GL
